Absolutely no one can tell I went to the pub before I took this supermarket selfie with my book in Morrisons Keighley.

Handy when your knitting matches your dog…

It’s pub day again! I’m so happy to see this book out in the world. I feel like my heroine’s come a long way since we first met each other three years ago. There are two more books to come. With only one left to write, I’m already sad knowing we’ll soon have to say goodbye 😪 geni.us/c9Se

I’ve successfully managed to knit every day this month! Ten little cardigans and a blanket ready to donate to my local baby bank, and £153 raised for Alzheimer’s Research. Thank you so much to everyone who’s supported me!

Day 1 of my Knit Every Day in March challenge for Alzheimer's Research UK. I’m only making charity items this month, and today clocked two hours adding to a newborn cardigan and cot blanket for a local baby bank. Please do consider sponsoring me for this good cause! tinyurl.com/wb2fs7t5

A little reversible bookscarf to teach myself double knitting.

This yarn looks lovely but it’s the very devil to knit! Rowan Kidsilk Haze in marmalade. I’ve had this for yonks and every time I’ve tried to make something with it I’ve ended up pulling it out in frustration. This time I’m determined it won’t beat me though. Pattern is Lace Leaf Scarf from Ravelry.
